Rochester Monarchs F, Matthew Roe Scores 6 Goals

Rochester Forward Matthew Roe registered 6 goals in Monarchs 9-3 victory over the New York Aviators Saturday night. The achievement by Roe makes him one of only 4 skaters to score 6 or more goals in a single game this season.

The six goals included 3 unanswered goals in 4 minutes and 36 seconds in the first period, including the game winner. Each of the six goals came at even strength.

A Tier 3 Junior Hockey veteran, Roe had a brief stint with the Roc City Royals in 2014-15, followed by a full season with the Boston Jr Rangers in 2015-16. Roe began this season averaging over a point per game through 10 games for the Rangers before transferring to the Rochester Monarchs in late October. Having an immediate impact on the Monarchs, Roe earned two points in his first game in a Rochester jersey.

A 1997, Roe contributes to 24% of the Monarchs goals in games he participates in.

Roe and the Monarchs have 5 games remaining on the regular season schedule, including a second matchup this afternoon against the Aviators.
